Lecture 7/8? Forgetting Flashcards
(13 cards)
Josts Law and consolidation
Proactive interference
Part-Set Cuing Impairment
Retrieval induced forgetting
Retrieval Practice Paradigm
Positivity bias
tendency to remember more of the good things, especially as one ages
Repression vs Suppression
Rep:
memory emerges, instinctively dismiss it as quickly as possible, dismissal becomes automatic with repetition
Sup:
memory emerges, know that you’re not supposed to think about that, dismiss memory (do self punishment), emotional consequences louder than memory
Item Method Direction
List method direction
Context Shifts
If we remove the cue, the memory won’t come to mind as much. by avoiding reminders the memory doesn’t get reinforced
ie. school shooting in a library, so they take down the library and make a new one to make people forget
Retrieval Suppression
Psychogenic fugue
forgetting one’s own identity after a major trauma
